Ok, I know this is going to sound like a stupid question, but I'm getting
ready to install ColdFusion on my web server, and it wants to know what the
'web server document directory' is. It suggests the wwwroot folder.

Is that correct? Or since I have my webs published to a seperate folder,
would that be the document directory?

Help!????

Steve

Steve,
Yes, if that is the default directory that the web server is bound
to. By default, an IIS web server binds to the inetpub\wwwroot directory.
This should be fine unless you've specifically stated another directory as
the virtual server's root directory.

Hope this helps,

Mark,

I know this is going to sound bad, but would it show in IIS if there was a
seperate directory as the virtural servers root directory? If so, where?

Thanks!
Steve
